Russians will now be able to enter Ukraine only on foreign passports

The Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk signed a decree of the Government of Ukraine "On the suspension of certain provisions of the Agreement between the Government of Ukraine and the Government of the Russian Federation on visa-free travel of citizens of Ukraine and the Russian Federation."

This is reported by the press service of the Cabinet.

Arseniy Yatsenyuk said that the government adopted a decree on stopping the operation of certain provisions of the Agreement between Ukraine and the Russian Federation on visa-free travel of Ukrainian and Russian citizens: "We are taking out an internal passport and a birth certificate as the basis for crossing the Ukrainian state border."

The regulations on the remaining documents of Russian citizens specified in the bilateral Agreement for entry into the territory of Ukraine, for example, diplomatic and service passports, remain in force.

The head of government recalled that Russian President Vladimir Putin "asked to cross the state border exclusively on foreign passports": "Well, we heard his request." Now it is necessary that Russian citizens, as requested by Vladimir Putin, use only foreign passports. "

He recalled that before February 15, the State Migration Service of Ukraine should establish 606 terminals for issuing biometric passports for Ukrainian citizens: "This issue is under special control of me and the whole country." Arseniy Yatsenyuk instructed to ensure the establishment of these terminals, "so that people can freely obtain passports and use them both for travel to the member states of the European Union and other countries."
